[Supras] Megan Racing Coilovers..who has em

[Walker, Brian (Rich. Dist)]

I'm certainly not saying anything against the Megans Robert, just that
the name hasn't been out there, so there's no test data to go around. I
didn't really want to jump to that high of a rate, thinking it would
take some serious valving to support those rates (where as some high
rate setups don't have sufficient damping from my readings)

If I had the money now I'd request to be a tester for you since I run
timed events (auto-x) with a couple of clubs but I won't have $$ for
coilovers until the offseason. I've gotten to where swaybars don't seem
to be enough to mask lower spring rates and I think heavier springs
would be a big help. I'm sure Geoff could get some data for you on a
track though since he's licensed, if he's willing to park that Rx8 for
an event :)

So far, I can't find anyone using them in timed competition.  If I could
find someone, I could arrange a small discount.

@ 935 Motorsports, I offer that if the Megan Racing coilovers do not
prove to perform up to what you want, in 30 days, you can return them
for full credit towards a set of TEIN flex.

So far, never had willing to take them off the car.  My arguement
towards Megan is that you can use the $500 or so savings vs say FLEX and
put it to use in other parts of the car.  Better pads, stickier tires,
new bushings. 
In turn, you will have a better overall car.

Granted, most buyers are new to MA70 coilovers and really wouldn't know
what was good or bad vs their old TEMS shocks.  "any" upgrade would feel
great.

The long term effects (over 1 year) on MR coilovers has yet to be
reported.
